Ls Angeles is a ndle bwl f highways. It’s als ne f the nly tw cities in the wrld where big cats walk wild inside the city bundaries (边界). But big cats and highways d nt mix, which is why Ls Angeles will sn be hme t ne f the wrld’s biggest wildlife crridrs (走廊). Last mnth the gvernr f Califrnia, Gavin Newsm launched cnstructin.
The cats in questin are muntain lins. They live in the Santa Mnica Muntains. Their numbers are unchanging. Their habitat is mstly natural wilderness, full f deer, the lins fd. The eclgy (生态) f their hme, the largest city natinal park in the wrld, is healthy. Yet animals can be in danger withut habitat lss. Genetic degradatin (基因退化) can be just as deadly.
Cutting thrugh the muntains is Rute 101, carrying up t 1000 vehicles an hur. It cuts the Santa Mnica range ff frm a larger wilderness t the nrth. The suthern area is nt big enugh fr all the lins. The result is a ppulatin trapped with inbreeding and genetic degradatin.
Fur years after that study came the first evidence (证据) that the big cats were suffering physical damage. In the early 1990s bilgists studying the Flrida panther a clsely related animal, fund that many f the males had the same genetic shrtcmings. The Flrida panther escaped extinctin nly thanks t the intrductin f females brught frm Texas t refresh the gene pl.
Califrnia des nt need t g that far. There are healthy muntain-lin ppulatins nrth f the Santa Mnica range separated by the rad. Hidden cameras shw the animals waited at the side f the highway, nt daring t crss. The slutin is a 165-ft-wide dirt bridge which wuld allw them t walk high ver the traffic.
The animals becme sexually mature (成熟) at 2½ t 3 years and have babies every ther year. S within ten years f the crridr’s cmpletin the great-grandchildren f the firs mating beynd the muntains culd have babies. Genetically, even a few matings wuld make a difference. “We’ll definitely save the muntain lin,” thinks Paul Edelman f the Muntain Recreatin and Cnservatin Authrity (MRCA). “It’s just a matter f hw lng it takes.”

C. It is supprted by the gvernr f Califrnia.D. It will be the wrld’s biggest wildlife crridr.

C. Their habitat is lst.D. They are being hunted withut limit.

A. Making laws t prtect their habitat.
B. Intrducing females frm ther states.
C. Setting up mre natinal parks fr them.
D. Building a dirt bridge fr them t crss Rute 101.
11. Where cn we prbably find the text?
